Hi Mike,
Sorry, Just noticed your posts on my profile, Happy new year to you as well!
yes I do prefer the Figarti units, I like the size better and the cargo is removable which it isn't in the K&C version. I'm still not totally sold on the Figarti figs.There just not up to K&C standards but the figures in the K&C Chevy's are too small. The figarti figs match up just fine with the K&C SAS sets. I think the figarti vehicles and the K&C figs is the way I'd go. but I ended up with both and I had built my own Chevy and Jeeps as well with modified figs before they were released. So as you can see I'm a real fan of the line.
Your doing some great work with the dioramas, keep it up.
